Intelligent Perimeter Security

What Is Perimeter Surveillance

A perimeter typically surrounds an outdoor area or building and often acts as a first line of defense against intruders. A fence and gate is put in place to deter intruders and prevent unauthorized entry. Monitoring those fence lines and responding to suspicious activity, or even security breaches, can be considered as perimeter surveillance.

An effective perimeter security strategy combines a well-trained physical security team with a modern perimeter security system. Such a system offers AI video surveillance with intelligent analytics that provides real-time alerts and automatically filters out false alarms. Wildlife, swinging branches, falling leaves – they all can trigger alarms. Through machine learning algorithms our surveillance cameras know how to effectively ignore these false triggers. This enables operators to focus on what really matters.

Build An Effective Perimeter Protection System

Set up an effective surveillance systems by selecting a number of cameras with exceptional image quality, for example panoramic cameras, PTZ cameras or thermal cameras. Connect these network cameras with network video recorders to make sure video footage is available for playback and forensic searches. Since our perimeter security cameras come with application specific AI built-in, unusual activity or intruders that try to camouflage themselves will be automatically detected. Especially when combining security cameras with sensors, IP loud speakers and perimeter access control systems, you are creating an end-to-end security solution with all proactive measures in place to prevent unauthorized access and security breaches.

Intelligent Video Analytics for Advanced Intrusion Detection

With Intelligent Video Analytics Pro Perimeter, we bring new application-specific AI video analytics to our security cameras. It leverages AI-driven video analytics, state-of-the-art algorithms, and multiple camera types - including PTZ cameras and thermal cameras - to provide reliable long-range perimeter protection for critical infrastructure, commercial buildings, outdoor areas, and industrial sites.

This security solution enables accurate detection and identification of intruders - even in low-light conditions, poor visibility, weather extremes, or complete darkness - by continuously monitoring perimeters, fences, and gates with advanced surveillance cameras. The system triggers real-time alerts for unusual or suspicious activity such as unauthorized access, intrusion attempts, or potential security breaches, helping security teams and personnel to proactively deter intruders and mitigate external threats. Cloud storage, video recordings, and scalable video surveillance help streamline investigations and support a robust first line of defense for any building or area requiring proactive protection and monitoring

Airports

Reliably Secure The Perimeter Of Your Airport

Unauthorized entry across perimeter fences and onto runways presents major perimeter protection challenges for airports. Standard surveillance cameras and video monitoring can make real-time detection of intruders and unusual activity difficult for security personnel, especially in low-light conditions. With advanced video analytics and AI, perimeter security cameras now provide accurate detection, intelligent classification, and real-time alerts. Intruders can be identified in video footage—even in complete darkness—thanks to integrated infrared and thermal imaging, which detects suspicious activity up to 550 meters away and through dense vegetation. When a breach is detected, PTZ cameras and thermal cameras automatically track the movement of suspects across the airside, displaying their locations and triggering alarms to support rapid response.

These perimeter security systems minimize false alarms and ensure security teams can monitor, protect, and manage critical infrastructure effectively. Interactive maps can display the number of cameras detecting intruders, while cloud storage ensures secure archiving of relevant footage. By combining proactive measures and advanced detection algorithms, these perimeter security strategies help protect critical infrastructure, deter intruders, and support airport security personnel in maintaining the first line of defense against external risks.

Energy and Utility

Intelligently Secure The Perimeter Of Energy And Utility Facilities

Many customers rely on energy and utilities to power commercial buildings and critical infrastructure. Damage or unauthorized access to these assets risks security, health, safety, and supply continuity, potentially causing costly shutdowns. Advanced perimeter protection systems offer intelligent detection and analytics to ensure reliable perimeter security and compliance, delivering peace of mind.

Our perimeter security solutions use AI-driven analytics such as line crossing, area breach, loitering, and object detection across PTZ, fixed and thermal network cameras. These perimeter surveillance cameras integrate seamlessly for enhanced threat detection accuracy and reduced false alarms. Audio responses can be automated or remotely triggered by security personnel. Ideal for outdoor, unmanned energy sites, these systems intelligently differentiate real threats from wildlife to minimize false alarms. Real-time alerts, cloud video recording, and situational awareness empower security teams to monitor suspicious or unusual activity effectively.

This long-range perimeter security system protects fences, gates, and outdoor areas across all light and weather conditions, using cost-effective thermal and optical cameras. It forms the first line of defense for critical infrastructure, providing scalable, reliable protection 24/7.
